going to be kind of a mess tomorrow morning because the golden gate ferry service will be shut down all day beginning at 4 a.m. that means the service's 5,000 commuters will have to find alternate transportation. now, the ticket agents say they are walking off their jobs for one day because the bridge district is replacing them with automated ticket-selling machines. now, the ticket agents union says that's a terrible move because they also assist the public and provide other customer services. commuters tonight were surprised to hear that they would have no service tomorrow. but most were also supportive of the agents. >> i did not know that. >> reporter: so what are you going to do? >> take the bus. >> i feel the workers should strike. i feel like that's a valid concern of theirs and just, you know, i would definitely pay a little bit more to keep people employed. >> reporter: so there will be no ferry service tomorrow. is that going to be inconvenient for you? >> i didn't know.

very inconvenient, yes. yes. >> reporter: how will you get over to the city? >> well, now that you have me thinking, i'll have to figure that out because i'm new to the ferry. >> reporter: ticket agents tell me that there are eight full- time and four part-time workers who will lose their jobs. eight others were either transferred to other positions within the system or have retired. so i'm being told by the ticket agents here tonight, allen, that beginning july 8, there will be no more humans in that ticket office that you see behind me. >> linda, for tomorrow, they are adding bus -- more bus service than usual? >> reporter: yes. they will be adding more services including buses here that will take them to the golden gate bridge. so we'll have more details on exactly what the routes will be later tonight. but they are going to have more bus service and people are saying because it's also a holiday weekend, a lot of people have decided they are going to just stay home. >> this may tip that scale for them, too. linda yee, thank you. it was a rare bit of good

news in an otherwise dismal housing market. home prices swung up a bit this week. but many homeowners are suddenly seeing that their home is worthless than they thought. on the consumerwatch, julie watts explains a change that's throwing homeowners for a loop. julie. >> reporter: the website zillow burst on the scene with an estimate of what your home is worth. the worth of your home may have just taken dive. >> reporter: realtor billy carp used to love zillow and so did his clients. >> they almost always bring up zillow. they say my house is this and that on zillow. >> reporter: now they are taking another look. >> this is definitely low. >> reporter: zillow.com the website known for instant appraisals has changed the way it calculates those values. >> we updated our algorythm to better track what's happening in the market. >> reporter: the site says it's

more to accurate. >> we approved our accuracy from 7% to 10%. >> this is on the low side. >> reporter: for example, this home in berkeley that zillow now pegs at $658,000 is really worth closer to $725,000. >> the volatility in the markets is enormous. >> reporter: uc-berkeley economics professor john quigley says zillow's change isn't likely to soothe an already battered housing market. >> people become more uncomfortable, less certain, more anxious about the value of their real property. >> reporter: and some believe the lower estimates could make homes in the area that have already seen a big decline in prices that much harder to sell. >> in certain areas the homes are hard to sell anyways. so i don't know whether this will make it more difficult. it certainly won't help. >> reporter: zillow says even

with the new algorythm, the estimates are just a starting point and both carp and quickly agree. >> i would not read too many into it. i would read very little into it. i think the changes in indices over a short period of time are noise. >> i hope they get further corroboration of the value of their houses before they jump off a bridge. >> reporter: there is a psychological aspect to all of this. experts say homeowners make financial and life decisions based on what they believe their homes are worth. if you're curious about what your home is worth, you can have it appraised by a professional. usually costs about $350 to $400. even the folks at zillow say, listen, this is just a starting point. you really do need to do your due diligence. >> thank you. well, the ink has hit the paper. governor brown has signed the state budget a day before the fiscal year starts. now, in order to get it passed, the governor postponed his plan to have voters decide whether

to extend some temporary tax increases. that means starting tomorrow, the sales tax in the state is dropping by 1%. so for anyone buying a big ticket item that could save you hundreds of dollars in taxes. but the discount may be short- lived for san franciscans. maybe ed lee is seeking a local .5% sales tax measure that would be on the november ballot. but as part of the new budget, online retailers are going to be required to collect sales tax from customers in california. but the internet's biggest online retailer refuses to collect the sales tax. kiet do on the battle between amazon and the state and what it means for those doing business with amazon. reporter: mark welch is one of the premier consultants in the bay area for anyone doing business with amazon. well, at least he was up until today. >> 12:30 this morning i logged into my amazon account and it says, account closed. data for archived purposes only. >> reporter: he is an affiliate based in hayward and makes a commission every time you buy products from amazon through his website but yesterday,

amazon sent this email severing ties with 25,000 affiliates in california. overnight, mark lost thousands of dollars in profits. >> one way to look at it is my stepdaughter is 16. she is going to want a car. that makes it a heck of a lot harder to get that car. makes it much less likely. >> reporter: amazon figured that by getting rid of its so- called nexus of affiliates, it no longer has a physical presence in california. and therefore, it doesn't need to collect sales taxes. which brings us to this company, lab 126 based in cupertino. >> this is where the state of california thinks they have got amazon cornered. >> reporter: here at lab 126, this is where the kindle was developed. and this is where the state of california believes that amazon has a physical presence in the state. >> reporter: the board of equalization says the new law concerning subsidiaries of out of state companies like lab 126 is clear. >> one of the provisions of the bill does require that

companies that have a relationship with -- a subsidiary or sister relationship with a business in california that provides a service to them so that they can continue to do their out of state business is enough to determine that they have nexus in california and are therefore required to collect the use tax. >> reporter: amazon says the new law is counterproductive and so it will not collect sales tax. the fines however will be severe. at the start of every quarter, there will be a 10% fine on the total tax owed. and then another 6% every month thereafter. >> we can lien property, place levies on bank accounts. we have several tools at our disposal and we plan to do this with any retailer. we do it currently with any retailer that's registered with us who is required to pay if they fall behind in their payments. >> reporter: as for mark welch, he says the big loser in all of this are the affiliates. >> you know, it's a power play between the state of california

and amazon. huge multi-billion-dollar entities. i'm squeezed in the middle. >> reporter: in hayward, kiet do, cbs 5. the streets of one south bay city are a little less protected tonight. dozens of police officers in san jose turned in their badges today. the layoffs come as the department struggles to respond to a spike in homicides. as mark sayre reports, public safety could be at risk. mark. >> reporter: after months of talk and many contentious city council meetings on this issue, the day of reckoning in san jose arrived today and for those officers who actually lost their jobs, they have very different feelings about what's happened here. reporter: for the first time in san jose city history, police officers lined up to turn in their badges and ids. on this, the last day of the city's fiscal year, 66 officers were laid off as part of an effort to balance the budget. fabian wilkenson is one of them. >> it left a bad taste in my mouth. so i take a break and restructure.

>> reporter: in a show of respect and support for their former colleagues, some uniformed officers gathered outside to shake hands with and hug the departing officers there. -- there were a wide range of emotions and feelings here. some officers fear what the layoffs mean for residents of the city. >> i worked a couple of gang suppression units and stuff like that. and i think that's where your major violent crimes come from. and they all are aware that we are getting laid off. and they know the date. and it's today. so expect tomorrow it's going to heat up. >> reporter: others feel a contract of sorts between the city and its police officers has been forever altered. >> personally, i think it's been a slap in the face because we made a commitment 2.5 years ago to do this job for 30 years to the best of our efforts. >> reporter: but the one emotion which prevailed was one of sadness where former officers say what they will miss most was the one job they wanted to do

the most. >> we can't go out and serve the city. that's what i wanted to do my whole life, born and raised in san jose. and now i can't help the citizens. >> i feel for everybody here. i feel bad for the union. i feel bad for the police administration because i think they worked hard, too, to try and save as many jobs as possible. >> reporter: on this day when 66 police officers lost their jobs there was an announcement of the shake-up at the top of the police department. the assistant police chief announced she is leaving san jose to take the police chief job in hayward. >> mark, it looks like -- is it a case of the "last in, first out"? they seem to be the youngest most fit officers. >> reporter: that is exactly right. the average experience here about three years was the longest serving officer, about six months in the academy, 2 1/2 years on the streets.

that's about where the cutoff was, about the three-year mark. everyone down from there. people with four years of service have survived this round but as you know, the mayor says expect another round of layoffs next year. >> got to find some money for that. mark sayre in san jose, thank you. i'm juliette goodrich live in dublin where safe and sane fireworks are okay. but not in livermore. the fireworks show has been cancelled. some residents are fired up saying the show must go on legal or not. it's likely due to malnutrition for sure but also being in a situation. >> when the local food movement goes terribly wrong. how you might be able to help these rescued rabbits. myspace sells for $35 million. facebook valued at something like a gazillion! but why? how they hang such high dollar values on something you can't even put your hands on and why investing your money is risky. ,,,,,,,,,,,,

get on a plane from new york to l-a with an invalid i-d and an expired tonight federal investigators want to know how a man managed to get on a plane from new york to l.a. with an invalid id and an expired boarding pass that wasn't even his. randy paige reports even after getting caught, the feds say suspects fooled airport security a second time. >> this is an extremely serious breach. it's among the highest order. >> reporter: the first breach happened on friday at jfk international airport in new york. a nigerian man identified as olajide noibi was allowed past the first checkpoint after showing his tsa agent a boarding pass for a flight that had already flown with someone else's name on it and a student id with his name on it. noibi allegedly showed the same bogus boarding pass to a virgin america gate attendant who let him board the plane t wasn't until they were in midair en route to los angeles when a flight attendant noticed he was sitting on what should be a vacant seat. he was questioned on arrival

and released. yesterday noibi was spotted again using another expired boarding pass at a delta gate trying to board a flight to atlanta. this time, the fbi arrested him. noibi told an fbi agent he used the same expired boarding pass ruse at the initial screening location at l.a.x. and was allowed once again into the restricted area. so how could this happen? with apparent security breaches at two airports involving many different people and agencies? >> as a former inspector- general of the united states department of transportation i would what i recommend if i was the head of this investigation and that is every person and entity who failed on that day, the persons who did not do their jobs should be subject to a work removal. >> reporter: the fbi is now saying olajide noibi is an american citizen of nigerian descent and the fbi says he has no ties to any terrorist groups and is not considered to be a security threat. at l.a.x., randy paige, cbs 5. one in 17 inmates in the federal system could soon see a reduced sentence now that a panel has decided to apply new

drug sentencing limits retroactively. it used to be someone busted with crack cocaine would get the same mandatory sentence as someone with 100 times more powder cocaine. that drew accusations of racism given that crack was more common in poor black neighborhoods. and powder was more prevalent with affluent whites. 12,000 inmates could see their sentences cut. the change is expected to save the feds $200 million over five years. looks like the senate won't be heading out for the 4th of july vacation. senate majority leader harry reid announced this morning that the senate is canceling its scheduled break next week to continue working on the debt talks. but as danielle nottingham reports, time is running out. >> reporter: president obama got what he wanted, the senate is canceling its 4th of july recess staying in town to work on a debt compromise and republicans now have their own challenge for the president. >> all we need is the president to step up and give us a proposal.

so far he has laid back and criticized everybody else. >> the president says he wants to get working, wants us to get working. i can't think of a better way than to have him come right on over today. >> reporter: republicans and democrats agree on one thing: any plan to raise the debt ceiling must include spending cuts. but republicans won't agree to the new taxes democrats are pushing for the rich. >> the main obstacle, and i want to be very clear, to finding common ground is republicans' stubborn insistence on protecting taxpayer-funded giveaways to corporations and individuals who don't need the giveaways. >> reporter: the white house wants lawmakers to make tough decisions and soon. if congress doesn't raise the borrowing limit in just over a month, the country's economy is at stake. >> we are up against the wall. and it is not at all reasonable to play chicken with the full faith and credit of the united states.

traditional treatment can be frightening. som more than 200,000 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed this year. traditional treatment can be frightening. some women are looking for alternatives. dr. kim mulvihill has news on one experimental approach. >> reporter: it's a type treatment where doctors use heat to cook or kill cancer cells while trying to spare the surrounding healthy tissue.

angela robinson was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. >> my primary doctor offered the traditional medical treatment, which is to cut poison and burn, which is surgery, chemo and radiation. >> reporter: angela feels traditional chemotherapy and radiation are like having grenades inside your body wiping out the good cells along with the bad. >> in order to kill off tumor cells, be it through surgery or chemotherapy, radiation, accepted standards that we use, you have some sort of collateral damage of healthy nearby tissues. >> reporter: instead she close to fight with an experimental treatment called hyperthermia. this machine delivers heat through ultrasound or microwave to the tumor for an hour killing offer the cancer. the patient then undergoes low dose radiation treatments for about 30 minutes five times a week for three months. early research shows heat also makes the radiation more effective.

one researcher says 80% of his early stage patients have survived at least five years after the hyperthermia treatment. now, by itself, hyperthermia is not considered effective, always used with other standards such as radiation or chemo. many studies show when combined with standard care it will significantly shrink tumors but not all studies show these patients live longer. it's interesting to see. they are looking at this in all sorts of cancer treatments. >> thank you. is the weather promising for the weekend? it sounds hot, which is promising for her.

looking at unlimited visibility, wall-to-wall sunshine and today our highs banked between 63 in half moon bay to 87 degrees in gilroy. you know what? what you're looking at right now is actually a perfect summer day for this 30th day of june because temperatures were relatively close to normal highs for this time of the year. if you are out and about on this thursday evening, we have a little bit of stratus playing tight to the coast in the 60s. 70s at the bay and still into the low 80s inland. morning patchy fog on friday. it will be warmer and mild temperatures by evening. pinpoint forecast, the clouds are just playing tag with the coastline. that will be the case when you rise and shine for your morning commute. warmer temperatures, that's due it high pressure but it's staying stagnant. as it does so, it's going to cap the air. and therefore, that's why we'll have some unhealthy levels of ozone by sunday.

never a good thing when you can see the air that you breathe. so keep that in mind, as well. here you go for your getaway friday. 96 degrees in sacramento, 74 in the high sierra, after several inches of snow yesterday. triple digits in redding. tonight we'll see some areas of that patchy low clouds, otherwise into the 40s and 50s for overnight lows. tomorrow a west and northwest wind 10 to 20 miles per hour, warmer numbers 83 in san anselmo, mid-80s in sonoma. outside number to the north will be fairfield and vacaville and towards discovery bay into the low 90s. 70 in richmond with the abundance of sunshine. 93 east of the bay. and in pleasanton, 90 degrees. but at the alameda county fairgrounds where you have more concrete, more asphalt, about 92 degrees for the 99th annual alameda county fair. lots of fun and festivities there. all right. we rhymed. i'm a poet and didn't know it.

85 in santa clara, 90 campbell, 63 half moon bay. the extended forecast calls for the warmest day coming up as we trend upwards to triple digits. brentwood, tracy, oakland and antioch on sunday. notice the string of warm weather will continue through the seven-day forecast. and by the way, if you just do want to highlight that 4th of july forecast, sunshine and hot inland. that is the pinpoint forecast. dennis? >> okay, roberta. the wall falls look good in the background. there can a wild card entry make it to the wimbledon finals? i'm dennis o'donnell. brian wilson had a chance to save a huge game for the giants next. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
